Biohazard cleaning explained
What Biohazard Cleanup in Birmingham Means and Includes
Biohazard cleanup is the safe removal, disinfection and disposal of blood, bodily fluids, tissue and other infectious or hazardous materials after a death, a crime, an accident, a hoarding situation or a sewage backup.
It is also called bio hazard cleaning, biohazard remediation, trauma cleanup or bio cleanup. Professional biohazard cleanup goes beyond ordinary deep cleaning. Using personal protective equipment, technicians trace every place contamination reached, remove porous items beyond disinfection, then restore affected areas to a livable condition.

Health and safety
Serious Health Risks Linked to Biohazards in Greater Birmingham Businesses and Homes
Biohazards are real health hazards that can make people seriously ill, and the contamination you can see is rarely all of it.
Bloodborne Pathogens
Hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV can live in blood. Hepatitis B may survive on a surface for at least seven days, according to the CDC.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
Fluids, gases and bacteria from decomposition can penetrate flooring and move into other rooms through ventilation.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
Within 24 to 48 hours, wet materials may begin growing mold. Raw sewage carries salmonella, hepatitis A and E. coli.
Why Home Cleaning Products Cannot Remove Biohazards
Although bleach and sprays may clean on top, absorbed fluids remain in drywall, subfloor, carpet and its pad. If contaminated matter is left behind, bacteria and odor return. Decontamination services remove that matter.
